Welfare League seeks justice

JUSTICE FOR RUPERT: Terrier cross Rupert was abandoned at the South East Animal Welfare League when a member of the public threw him over the fence before fleeing the scene. SEAWL operations coordinators Trina Twilley and Caitlin Mellor are putting out a plea for action against those whom harm animals.

THE South East Animal Welfare League is calling for justice after a terrier cross named Rupert was thrown over its fence without regard to his safety.

Video footage on Facebook, which has since been removed, showed a man attempt to unlock the gate, but upon realising he was unable to enter the premises, he threw Rupert over the fence and drove away.
